Many marketers are experimenting with new content formats, revenue streams, platforms, and styles to create memorable and connected content.
With any organization which offers an exchange of good or services for payment, there’s always a need to reach more clients more effectually with the objective of increasing the bottom line.
Advertisers are paid top dollar to seek out ways to push the letter so to speak in order to produce the next big thing to increase sales and yield for their clients a return on their investment.
One of the avenues companies have taken to is direct marketing magazine advertising, be it print or digital based and, for a number of reasons which prove that this particular medium is sufficiently reliable and productive. Maybe oddly so but, it’s working well for many clients. In this post, we look at the advanced ways advertisers have used magazines to increase sales and, working with this premier provider for their unique qualities.
In the magazine cover advertising world, targeting the right niche, demographic and market is the difference between flushing money down the drain to money-hungry advertisers and hitting the jackpot with return clients and reaping a lucrative return.
In order to increase sales intensive research needs to be done in order to determine the value of the product, you intend on selling, which demographic you intend to pitch that product to and whether or not the market for that product is saturated or not. As the old adage goes, too much of a good thing is not good.
In other words, one may have a valuable product which there may be used for in the target market but ten other products similar to that one already dominate the market. There is, therefore, the value in conducting well-thought-out research.
Once the research has been done, translating that into sales undergoes a process which entails finding the magazine which has a successful readership and aims the target market of interest, sending the correct message, using the right font and graphics to catch the eye of a consumer which has seen almost everything.
The advantage of magazines having a longer shelf life plays to the advertiser’s advantage as it allows for the reader to read and re-read ads subconsciously imprinting onto their psyche.
Another way to increase sales is to teach the client about the product. Learning is always welcomed and what better way to get the news out of your product or service than to teach them about it.
In a digital magazine, this could be in a YouTube link which redirects them to a video which showcases the product and how to use it. A big trend that increases sales is offering sample products in the magazine plastic folder the magazine is encased in or a stuck to a page in between the magazine's covers. The latter would be on the page of the advertisement which explains the benefit of the product. This gives the customer the chance to experience the product just enough to want more.
In the digital age we live in, the possibility of offering a personalized product based on their preferred clicks is not only possible but is also an effective way to monitor customer as well as tailor-make advertisements to suit them.
Finally, attaching real people to the products is key. Doing this through product reviews not only piques their interest but also gives the product credibility and in so doing gives the client peace of mind to explore what that good or service can do for them.
With television being a strong contender for advertisements one may argue that magazines are a thing of the past. On the contrary magazine ads, be it in digital or print, has proved it has staying power and with the new techniques employed to keep consumers intrigued, they do not intend to. There are many benefits of direct marketing through Magazines.
